Re: Locked up?



While I havent done that wouldn't it still work to pull the trans off the converter?  Probably need xlong wrench to reach them maybe even tappet wrench for clearance.

So that means the transmission is a cast iron TorqueFlite. I seem to recall that year cast iron TorqueFlites did not use a flex plate but bolted directly to the crankshaft. in other words, there was an extended flange on the crankshaft with a torque converter with studs that bolt directly to the crankshaft, (no flex plate). Does that change things on how to proceed with the motor locked up?
